Every weekend for the next two months, a new business course called Shkola Biznesa ver. 2.0 will offer participants a series of interactive training courses, master classes with successful businesspeople, and simulations devoted to ingraining essential business skills for the modern media environment in young entrepreneurs entirely free of charge.
The project is run by the Moscow Youth Multifunctional Center (MYMFC), established by the Moscow government in 2012 to encourage youth participation in business, innovation, and volunteer projects in Russia and abroad.
The program of the business course is distinguished by its "blend of progressive theory and entrepreneurial practice," a press release said.
Key skills such as search engine optimization, contextual advertising, and social media marketing, will be covered.
Shkola Biznesa ver. 2.0 begins with an introductory event at Flacon Design Factory on Wednesday at 6 p.m. All events will be conducted in Russian.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
